The Don

I just wanted to thank every one for your input. I am now looking to go with the V-Star 650 and upgrade in the future. The comments have been informative and as I suspected Yamaha owners are some of the coolest people and I look forward to seeing you on the road.

Hello and thanks in advance for your input. I do not currently ride a motorcycle, but, am planning on taking the safety course and buying a bike before the end of the year. I have been wanting to ride all of my life and am finally in a position to do so. Being that I have no experience I wanted your advice on which Yamaha cruiser to buy....I was considering the V-Star 950 but don't know if that would be to much bike at this stage of the game. What do you think? I am in my 30's 5'11 and 185lbs in case that needs to be factored in.
